More out of interest than an issue or anything, but why do front page news/articles change what I would assume to be the 'publish date' underneath them?

Looking at the front page now, loads of things that were published last week and now showing Saturday or Sunday. A quick glance has me assuming I've missed lots of content over the weekend, but I haven't.

Hi ukaskew,

Good question and I didn't know myself until just now! wobble Its whats called the "weekend bump" and its where the editorial guys choose a few, maybe more important, stories from the week that they feel may have gotten "lost" amongst the other stories posted, which are then bumped up through a change of date, to appear at the forefront again!

Hope that helps.

Jack
